government was ready to repair deplorable federal roads across the state to prevent accidents and waste of time on the roads.

After the accident abi
The accident wasn’t caused by bad roads, it was the result of hard drugs being taken by Dangote truck drivers after they took tramadol or other illicit drugs they look at people like ant, if they had an accident they simply disappear from the scene, after all Dangote trucks are insured then is left for the victims and insurance company to go on a legal battle and you can’t win them because they have the connection and the finances, those Dangote truck drivers needs to be stopped they are killing Nigerians.

I had one experience when me n my guy Chris were traveling the truck were competing with each other on the road and the other one ran to our lane there wasn’t an option left for us than to run into the bush to avoid collision

Apc Buhari tinubu's administration is a disaster
There's no Benin Abuja road sha

It's Benin-Auchi-Okene-Lokoja-Abuja-Kaduna expressway. Na A1 federal highway as you've correctly said.

The Okene part is a muddy mess! I don come down from bus at 2am for that useless place dey push bus commot from pothole. Yeye Bello state.

I don't understand this issue of federal roads and state roads. Do the needful and find a way to generate money for the project. Individuals are repairing streets in the town and state government never refunded them

Doctor wey run test.
Any way the government need to do more concerning the truck drivers and the bad road.

Maybe something wrong with me ... but how can bad road be responsible for this accident? If the road is bad ... one cannot speed .... and there is this smash up that took so many lives ... what will happen if the road is good? The problem is the drivers. What are the consequences? "The driver ran away" always seems to be the case. Do the Police ever go after the registered owner of the vehicle?
If these reckless drivers aren't being charged and sentenced then this reckless driving and waste of lives will continue. In saner climes the driver will be tracked down and be facing 11 counts of manslaughter among other charges and depending on the State... he will likely be sentenced to life imprisonment.... or death sentence.

And these were Salvation Army pastors returning to their base in Akwaibom after a programme in Lagos. Some families lost as much as three persons. Husband and little baby died leaving only the young mother.

Nigeria keeps play ludo with the lives of citizens with terrible roads.

May their souls rest. Extremely sad.

The deputy is preparing himself for next year's governorship race.

I believe this issue of bad roads and many others around the State have been in the media. No, now they break.

Hmmm. As in eh! Do you know I tried searching YouTube for the video and as I typed 'Ovia accident' was shocked at numerous results that popped up. Some as far back 2020! This year alone about 2 accidents already. And it seems to be that particular portion

It is when things like this happen that govt will mourn. Our govt are not proactive. The express way needs maintenance. Some part of the bridges are very bad....
